Interface DateResolver

public interface DateResolver

Strategy for resolving an invalid year-month-day to a valid one.

This interface defines the strategy used to resolve invalid dates like February 30th or November 31st.

This interface must be implemented with care to ensure other classes in the framework operate correctly. All implementations that can be instantiated must be final, immutable and thread-safe.

monthOfYear - the month-of-year, not null

dayOfMonth - the proposed day-of-month, from 1 to 31
